^Yeah, I understand what you mean. The only 'surprising' track imo was Kurumi to Dialogue. ALIVE and Love Jump! are both so extremely Team K and Team B-ish (respectively) it's impossible not to know which song belongs to who. Chance no Juuban runs in the same painfully idol-ish vein of PtS, and Yoyaku Christmas is well, what you'd expect it to be just from the title.

I don't think it's a bad thing though. I consider this single to be a sort of belated introduction. Now that they're "it", they're letting Japan know who they are and what they're about. The Team songs reflect each team's strengths and characteristics perfectly. Chance no Juuban has the typical AKB48 sound and Yoyaku has the regular senbatsu with the regular promo tie in. So it's a good balance if anything.

Omg, I just realized we still haven't heard anything about the kenkyusei song! What was the title again....? lol Oh, Fruits Snow! It's been completely forgotten. xD
